Research Area

Program focus: Internal medicine of ruminants and swine.

Basic research: I have a broad interest in the pathophysiology and treatment of diseases affecting ruminants. My specific areas of interest are in calf health, pharmacology and drug residues, and the effects of mycotoxins on food-producing animals.
